Study of the life cycle of Amblyomma dubitatum (Acari: Ixodidae) based on field and laboratory data
(2014-05)The life cycle of Amblyomma dubitatum was described based on the seasonal distribution of all parasitic stages and the development periods of engorged ticks under different conditions of photoperiod and temperature. All ... -
Natural infestation of Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris by Amblyomma dubitatum ticks
(2014-06)Natural infestation of Amblyomma dubitatum in relation to individual specific attributes of Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris such as sex, body mass and body condition was analyzed. The anatomical distribution of A. dubitatum on ... -
